Last night, I was talking to Iain about the mental gymnastics a lot of fanboys were performing in order to undermine the new Thor as the one and only Thor. She just picked up the hammer... The real Thor still exists... She's not actually Thor... She's a different Thor...

To which Iain replied, in his inimitable way: "If she's got Mjölnir, she's Thor. The only Thor. Without the hammer, the Thor we knew is just some dude."
